Switching

Switching from Skimmer?

Here is what changes, what we do not have yet, and how your clients come over in one file. Our promise first; the comparison after.

01

The AI reads the test strip

Readings fill in from the photo with a confidence score; anything uncertain is marked for the technician. Nobody else has this inside a route app. Readings typed by hand still work.

02

Photo required, checked by AI

Skimmer stores photos. ZapRoute needs one at every stop before the visit counts — and its AI confirms the service, catches duplicates, end-of-day dumps and fake timestamps.

03

The truck and the chemicals are on the books

Fuel cost per route, day, week, month and technician. Chemical cost per product, technician and pool. Not a log — a cost.

04

QuickBooks mode

QuickBooks stays the truth for money. ZapRoute prepares “Ready to invoice” with visits, salt, filters and repairs as invoice lines. No second billing system to reconcile.

05

Truly trilingual, price by step

English, Portuguese and Spanish on every screen. $59 up to 40 · $99 up to 99 · $1 per pool from 100 — you pay for the pools you serviced last month or keep active today.

Honestly

What we do not have (yet)

  • Customer portal
  • Online payments and AutoPay inside the app (billing lives in QuickBooks)
  • Quotes and estimates (made in QuickBooks; ZapRoute tracks the repair order)
  • Service texts / SMS to customers
  • Shopping list and inventory
  • LaMotte and Heritage integrations
  • Public API

If one of these runs your business today, we would rather tell you now.
